[quote=Anonymous]Best bet may be to ask her to "compromise." As we all know, advice coming from parents is often (heavily) discounted in their eyes. Find a neutral 3rd party (with english expertise?) who will give her feedback. Tell her to receive it but remain in control of whether any of it gets incorporated. Tell her it is good practice for college, where ALL of her writing will be critiqued by an ever-changing cast of characters. Tell her that you respect it as her essay and agree it should reflect her voice. It is a very solid draft but even famous, published writers have editors (because we cannot know how our words will be interpreted by others). Good luck! [/quote]
